Morning all,

I ride a Bianchi via nirone 2008 model. Mainly used for commuting.

The bearings on both the bottom bracket and the headset are getting a bit graunchy and I want to replace them.

Can anyone advise which bearings i need and where to get them?

It has a:

- FSA GOSSAMER MegaExo 53/39 crankset, and

- FSA ZS4-CUSTOM aheadset
FCN = 4

    You'll be able to get the details from the FSA website and either order online or via your LBS.
    The headset bearings have a number printed on the side to identify them.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    My LBS has just replaced the BB on my FSA with Shimano ones with no problems and are more widely available.£35 plus fitting and facing up of the bearing housing on the bike.£55 in total with setting up the gears agian aswell.Seems a lot aren't faced up on production lines.The drive side of mine was actually quite a bit out of true.Could be why this side went as it was running on the plastic cup from inside the bearing which had seized up.
